The problem occurred with and without a power socket. And even when the
train was stopped (at the same or similar frequency).

In the last few days I also used the laptop on battery for several
hours, and the problem has never occurred (in the train, the problem
was frequent).
Most often (except during the last week) I'm using a mouse, so that
I don't know whether the problem with the touchpad would occur.
